I don't think that anyone will assoicate a seashell with their "office 
shell". Although these two things happen to use the same word, I don't think 
they share anything beyond that. That usually shows when you translate the 
terms to antoher language.

I must say that I wouldn't know how to translate "office shell" to dutch. But 
"kantoor schelp" sounds ridiculous *) **)

*) i18n(office) == kantoor,  i18n(seashell") == schelp

**) I also think "tintenstrahldrucker" is a stupid word, yet that one seems 
to be in common use.

Cheers,
Waldo
